[Intro]
Hola Jorge! Andale, andale, arriba, arriba— I don't even know if I said that right
Sorry, I don't speak Mexican
Ay yo Jorge, can you hand me a burrito?
Por favor?

[Verse 1]
I am a Mexican, my card is greenish
My last name is probably Gonzalez Martinez
I'd help you mow your lawn, but me no speaky English
That's why my only job is selling tacos or cleaning
I don't drink alcohol, less it's tequila
I hate when people say tor-tilla… bi***, it's tortilla
I don't need a SUV, or an umbrella
Why? I got a donkey and sombrero

[Pre-Chorus]
Because I can dance with two maracas in my hand, hand, hand
Used to play in a mariachi band, band, band
I can fit 20 cousins up in the van, van, van
What'd you expect? I'm Mexican...

[Chorus]
Ohh ohh, we swam here all the way from Puerto Rico
And yes, we smell like burritos, oh oh
We're just Mexican People, oh oh…
The law saw that my card wasn't green, so I panicked!
Swam across the border at the speed of Hispanic!
Oh, mi hijo…. oh oh
We're just Mexican People, oh oh…
We're Brown People
[Verse 2]
I am a Mexican, yes, I speak Spanish
But only when you're around, so you can't understand it
Yes I like nachos, dipped in Mexican salsa
Yo quiero Taco Bell, until they shot my chihuahua
If you're Latino, or latina, then you're Mexican
If you're from Spain or Argentina, you're still Mexican
If you speak any Portuguese, you're still Mexican
And if your name is Luis, then you're Mexican

[Pre-Chorus]
Because I can dance with two maracas in my hand, hand, hand
Used to play in a mariachi band, band, band
I can fit 20 cousins up in the van, van, van
What'd you expect? I'm Mexican...

[Chorus]
Ohh ohh, we swam here all the way from Puerto Rico
And yes, we are illegal, oh oh
We're just Mexican People, oh oh…
The law saw that my card wasn't green, so I panicked!
Swam across the border at the speed of Hispanic!
Oh, mi hijo…. oh oh
We're just Mexican People, oh oh…
We're Brown People
[Bridge]
I work as a maid for white people and it's probably because their kids are messy
And because they can afford me, it's only like a penny a week but you know...

[Verse 3]
Hola, homie, I'm in your garden with a machete
The students in college hate me cause they don't mess with them essays
I'm a laker just like Kobe, I built my house with adobe
I'm teaching my black friends how to swim…. haha, because...

[Chorus]
Ohh ohh, we swam here all the way from Puerto Rico
And yes, we smell like burritos, oh oh
We're just Mexican People, oh oh…
The law saw that my card wasn't green, so I panicked!
Swam across the border at the speed of Hispanic!
Oh, mi hijo…. oh oh
We're just Mexican People, oh oh…
We're Brown People
